Answer:

The probability is 0.4909

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation for nCk give as the number of ways in which we can select k elements from a group of n elements:

nCk=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

Then, there are 220 ways in which we can select 3 candies from the 12 that are in the pack. It is calculated as:

12C3=\frac{12!}{3!(12-3)!}=220

On the other hand, there are 108 different ways to select the 3 candies in which they are all different flavors. It is calculated as:

4C3 * 3C1 * 3C1 * 3C1 = 108

Because, 4C3 give us the number of ways to select 3 flavors from the 4 flavors. From this 3 flavors selected, we are going to select one candie from each one, so we multiply 3 times by 3C1, one for each flavor.

Finally, the probability is the division between the number of ways in which we can select 3 candies with different flavors and the total number of ways in which we can select 3 candies from the 12 in the pack. This is:

P=\frac{108}{220}=0.4909

The correct answer is 3x+90=180

<em>Because you add the 2x and the x and you get 3x then there is a 90 degree angles so you add that and =180</em>

<em>Once you put it in the equation you can subtract 90 from 180 and you get 90 which you then divided by 3x and x equals 30</em>

An employee worked 36 hours last week. This week, she worked 48 hours. Find the percent increase. Round to the nearest percent.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

To the nearest percentage, percent increase is 33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

Percentage increase = (new - old)/old * 100%

new = 48 hours

old = 36 hours

% increase = (48-36)/36 * 100%

12/36 * 100%

1/3 * 100%

= 33.33%

Find the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region bounded by the graphs of y = x^3, x = 2, and y = 1 about the y-axis.
andrezito [222]

Since the rotation is about the y-axis, I'll integrate by dy.

\displaystyle y=x^3\\x=\sqrt[3]y\\\\V=\pi \int \limits_1^8(2^2-(\sqrt[3]y)^2)\, dy\\V=\pi \Big[4x-\dfrac{3}{5}x^{\tfrac{5}{3}}\Big]_1^8\\V=\pi \left(4\cdot8-\dfrac{3}{5}\cdot8^{\tfrac{5}{3}\right-\left(4\cdot1-\dfrac{3}{5}\cdot1^{\tfrac{5}{3}\right)\right)\\V=\pi \left(32-\dfrac{96}{5}-\left(4-\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\right)\\V=\pi \left(\dfrac{64}{5}-\dfrac{17}{5}\right)\\V=\dfrac{47\pi}{5}
